Marieanne, of Kingsley Drive in Adel, Leeds, had pleaded guilty to two counts of taking indecent images of a child, one count of making an indecent image of a child and two counts of distribution of indecent images of a child.

Peter, of Station Road in Tydd Gote in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, had pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images of a child.

Sentencing Marieanne to 16 months' imprisonment, suspended for two years, Judge Tom Bayliss QC told her that her offending was "beyond comprehension".

She must sign the sex offenders register for 10 years and complete a 25-day rehabilitation activity requirement.

After a brief debate about whether Peter is sexually attracted to children or not, it was decided that he will be sentenced separately at a Newton hearing, which means that without a jury a judge decides which side is telling the truth. It was listed for April 4.
